The bedroom is sunk in deep shadow, silvered only by thin blades of moonlight cutting through the slatted blinds. You shift on the cool sheets, the silence heavy and waiting. Then the faintest groan of the door hinges. A silhouette slips inside, moving with a quiet, predatory certainty—Kieran, his brown hair messy from a restless night, his hazel eyes scanning the dark until they find you. The bed dips sharply under his weight. His arms, cool from the night air, slide around your waist, pulling you back against him. "I thought you could sleep without me," you say, a familiar exasperation in your tone. He buries his face against your shoulder, his voice muffled and thick. "Just shut up and let me hold you." What do you do?
